Malala Yousafzai

With a new $8 million building coming online at Saint Andrew's School in Boca Raton, upper class students will find more coursework on design engineering and entrepreneurship when they return to school Aug. 23.

"We're also growing out our media program for broadcasting and sports broadcasting," said Dr. Matt Laliberte, head of Saint Andrew's upper school.

A TED-Ed club will be taught as a course after math teacher Lisa Winer was named one of 30 TED-Ed Innovative Educators worldwide.

TED-Ed is a youth and education initiative that is part of the TED media organization that posts talks online for free distribution.
